Active Digital Celebrates Triple Shortlisting at Tunbridge Wells Business Magazine Awards 2025

As the local business community prepares for Tunbridge Wells Business Magazine Awards 2025, we are delighted to share some exciting news. Active Digital has been shortlisted for not one, but three prestigious awards, recognising our dedication to innovation, leadership, and community impact across the region.

These awards celebrate the remarkable achievements of businesses that continue to raise standards, inspire excellence, and make a meaningful contribution to Tunbridge Wells and the wider Kent business landscape. Being recognised in multiple categories this year is a tremendous honour and a proud moment for our entire team.

Our Three Award Categories

We are thrilled to be finalists in the following categories:

Sustainability and Community Award — Sponsored by Cripps

This category recognises organisations that are committed to responsible business practices and making a positive difference within their community. At Active Digital, sustainability isn’t a buzzword, it’s a long-term commitment woven into how we operate. From reducing electronic waste through responsible device lifecycle management to supporting local initiatives and charities, we are continually investing in ways to give back and operate more sustainably. Being shortlisted for this award highlights our drive to run a business that benefits not just our customers, but the wider community.

SME of the Year — Sponsored by Thackray Williams

The SME of the Year award celebrates organisations that demonstrate exceptional growth, innovation, and resilience. For nearly three decades, our mission has been to transform the mobile communication experience for organisations across the UK. As a multi-award-winning mobile technology provider, we strive to combine cutting-edge solutions with a consultancy-led approach that puts customer experience at the heart of everything we do. This shortlisting reflects our ongoing commitment to excellence, adaptability and continuous improvement.

Employer of the Year — Sponsored by TN Recruits

Perhaps one of the most meaningful recognitions for us is the Employer of the Year category. Our people are the heartbeat of Active Digital. We have always believed that a thriving company culture, one built on respect, talent development, wellbeing and opportunity is essential to delivering outstanding customer experience. From investing in continual training to creating an environment where individuals feel supported and valued, our team culture is something we are deeply proud of.

Celebrating Local Excellence

The Tunbridge Wells Business Magazine Awards represents the spirit of enterprise, collaboration, and innovation that defines our community. This year, businesses from across multiple sectors have come together to celebrate success stories, share achievements, and champion the organisations shaping the future of our region.

Being shortlisted in three categories makes this year even more special. It reflects our commitment not only to delivering exceptional mobile and technology solutions, but also to nurturing our people and contributing positively to the community around us.

Our Journey and What This Means for Us

Active Digital has always believed in doing things differently. Since 1996, we have focused on offering businesses something unique in the telecoms industry: award-winning customer experience underpinned by trust, expertise, and innovation. Over the years, that approach has earned us recognition at European and global levels and being acknowledged locally through these awards reinforces that our values and mission continue to resonate.

This triple shortlisting is a moment of pride, but also a reminder of the hard work, dedication and passion that goes on behind the scenes every single day. From our customer service and technical teams to leadership and operations, each person at Active Digital has played a part in achieving this milestone.

Congratulations and good luck to all the finalists!

The winners will be revealed later this month, and we couldn’t be more excited to be part of such a fantastic celebration of local business success.
